Commentator: Andrew Miller

Nick: "Brilliant game, I don't want to sound like an overly cocky Essex fan but I still always fancied we had a chance in this game, Essex have made a habit of winning games they had no right to win in recent years"

Porter to Salisbury, OUT, middle stump splattered and it's all over at the Fortress! What a sensational session from the champions, they've turned this contest upside-down with such panache! A deflection off the pad, out comes the timber, and Essex are up and running for the season!
